Hada had a
brief family
reunion in
December
2010 after
serving his
15 years of
imprisonment
before being
transferred
to a secret
prison for
extrajudicial
detention

As Mr.Hada, Southern
(Inner) Mongolian
prominent political
prisoner, continues
to serve
extrajudicial
detention at a
secret prison in the
regional capital
Hohhot, his wife Ms.
Xinna and son Uiles
have gone missing
again since around
the end of January
2013.

Phone calls to Xinna,
Uiles and Xinna’s
extended family
remain unanswered.
The Southern
Mongolian Human
Rights Information
Center (SMHRIC) was
able to contact
Hada’s uncle Mr.
Haschuluu, who lives
in eastern Southern
Mongolia’s Ulaanhad
city (“Chi Feng” in
Chinese). Ulaanhad
is the location of
the Inner Mongolia
Jail No.4 where Hada
completed his 15
year jail sentence
on December 10, 2010
and then transferred
to the secret prison
in Hohhot.

“I have lost contact
with Xinna, Uiles
and Xinna’s extended
family in Bogot City
(“Bao Tou” in
Chinese) since early
November 2012,”
Haschuluu told
SMHRIC over the
phone, “on November
3, I went to Hohhot
and tried to see
them. Unfortunately
I was not allowed to
see any of them, so
I went to Bogot. I
was still not
allowed to see any
member of Hada’s
in-laws.”

When asked whether
there is any
information on
Hada’s current
health condition,
Haschuluu told
SMHRIC that “the
authorities keep
telling us that Hada
is in good health
although none of us
have seen him
recently”.

Almost a month ago,
Hada’s mother-in-law
Ms. Hanshuulan told
SMHRIC that “Hada’s
health conditions
seemed to be not too
terrible, and the
food he is given
seemed to be okay
compared to what was
given previously.”

During the interview
Hanshuulan also
revealed that the
Chinese authorities
are trying by all
possible means to
force Hada to admit
to his past
“wrongdoing” and
“crime” and sign a
document promising
not to carry out
similar activities
in the future if he
is released. Despite
the authorities’
continuing
intimidation
efforts, Hada has
consistently
rejected the
authorities’ demands
to sign any such
document.

“You know how
determined Hada is,”
Hanshuulan said
earlier, “Hada has
never accepted and
will never accept
any such condition,
because what Hada
did was nothing but
merely express his
thoughts.”

“At this moment, no
one knows where they
are or their
situation, because
all communications
are severed and no
one is allowed to
see them,” Haschuluu
said in response to
a question by
SMHRIC whether it is
possible that Xinna
and Uiles are being
confined to their
residence and
communications with
the outside cut off
or they might have
been taken into
detention again.
